An Explanation that Doesn't a elp.

Gen. Henry r. jackson, who, to use slang
phrase, so woefully pat his foot in it In his
speech at Macon last week, is now laboring
assiduously to extricate it. To the Atlanta
Constitution he has furnished the following
explanation of what he meant by his remar-
kable utterance:
l attempted to make plain two things in my
speech. First that the South did not fight for
slavery, but that she fought for governmental
principle IN spite Of slavery and TO the peril of
slavery, Second, that this governmental princi-
pie, which is not local to this country, but which
IS Worldwide. Is the principle upon which success
tul human government must finally be built; and
incidentally, and purely incidentally, that MIR.
Davis, having represented this principle of State
sovereignty, which / believe to be the true one,
and OF the ultimate triumph of which over this
world am sure, would when that triumph came
TO the world take precedence OF Mr.. Lincoln, who
fought for the opposite, and as believe, unwse
and perniclOus, principle of centralized power.
You may understand how incidental this personal
allusion was when II you that yield to few
men in my admiration of Mr.. Lincoln as man.
From the day that he and Mr.. Seward with their
carpet-bags in hand, came to the Fortress Mon
roe conference earnest to meet the Confederate
authorities, realized that he was patriot of
great proportion and statesman Of practical
sense and OF absolute devotion to his convictions.
spoke for a principle to which all personal allu-
sons, or even all American allnsions were subor-
dinate. The conflict over that principle and the
victory In its final struggle is worldwide.
This explanation shows that the public
did no injustice to Mr.. Jackson in the inter-
probation it put upon his speech, for it only
tends to confirm the correctness of that inter
probation. 1t may relieve him from the
charge of personal disrespect to President
Lincoln, but that is all. 1t presents the
doughty general as still believer in the
Lost Cause and confident that the doctrine
of State sovereignty as held by the South be-
fore the war, was right, and that it ought to
have sriumphed-nay more, that it win ulti-
mately triumph. If this were Mr.. Jackson's
opinion alone it would be of no great conse-
quence, but there have been abundant signs
that it is the opinion of large body of the
most influential class of Southern voters
The enthusiasm which everywhere greets
the appearance Of JEFF Davis is one of the
most conspicuous of them. Nobody, not
even President Cleveland, awakens in the
Southern populace such spontaneous and
genuine enthusiasm as does this embodiment
of the Lost Cause. A part of it may be due
to the love and affection which the Southern
people bear him personally, but a considera-
Bile part of it, it is to be feared, springs from
the fact that he stands for the principle of
government for which the Southern people
fought and which Gen. jackson says that he
has not yet relnquished.

The State campaign in New York is so
thoroughly overshadowed in the Metropolis
by the local contest between Fellows and
Nieoll, candidates for District Attorney,
that the Gotham voter is in danger of for
getting that there is anything to do but to
vote for one of these candidates Party lines
are all split up in this fight, and partisan
politics hardly enter into it at all. The oppo-
sition to Fellows springs from the fear that
he will "let up on the "boodlers," and his
sudden illness in the Cleary case it is very
plainly limited was feigned to excuse his non
appearance in that case, which was the one
OF all the doodle" cases in which the
strongest influence was brought TO bear in
favor of the accused. OF Nicoll's faithful
ness and devotion to the cause of the public
throughout that campaign there is no ques-
ton. He to very large extent hunted up
and prepared the evidence, made the opening
addresses, and examined and cross examined
the witnesses.

copcealing the existence of cholera cases. Two

supported by evidence it ought to lead to the

The Mormons have applied to the Sultan
of Turkey for permission to establish a COM
munity in his dominions. "Come by all
MEANS" win probably be his answer. Plu-
rality of wives need constitute no objection
to the newcomers, who would be so many
more desirable objects of taxation. There is
one thing, however, that our Mormon friends
must remember. In Turkey they must quit
meddling in politics.

The indignation in France at the action of
Newfoundland in forbidding the sale Of bait
to French fishermen who come over after
Goldfish is considerable. Newfoundland's
reason for doing this is that the French fish
ermen, receiving as they do bounty of two
cents pound on all the fish they export, are
becoming too active competitors in foreign
markets, and must be handicapped in some
way. 1t is fact worthy of notice that at
first the British government refused to sane
ton the prohibition of the sale of bait, re-
garding it as unjust to France, but later con-
scented when Newfoundland made an outcrY.

Gov. Sawyer in his veto of the Northern
railroad bill discusses to limited extent the
effect Of the control Of all the New Hamp-
shire railroads by the Boston q Maine on
the interests of the State. and expresses the
opinion that the Colby bill of last session
would never have become law had it been
supposed that it would lead to the monopo-
lizing of all the State railroads by foreign
corporation. Whatever may be thought of
Gov Sawyer's judgment, it cannot be denied
that he has shown himself to be man of adj
mirable courage. 1t required good deal of
pluck to snatch from the hands of the Bos-
ton q Maine the cup of monopoly it was just
holding to its lips.

Hon. Adm Thayer of Massachusetts in a
letter to the Boston Journal discusses the
question of the disposition of the surplus.
The necessity of reducing the surplus he re-
CARDS as settled. "All talk" he says "of
using the surplus In internal improvements
or in substituting commerce to any large ex-
tent is idle and preposterous." The necessi-
ty of a reduction being admitted, the ques-
tion arises how is this reduction to be
brought about. And this Mr.. Thayer an
swers plainly and directly. First abolish all
the internal revenue taxes, and then if need
be take Off or reduce the tax on sugar
and other necessaries. Concerning tie cry
that would be raised that this would be
making whiskey free Mr.. Thayer says:
But the question comes in tones of fiery anger
propose to have fee %isdey5 GerfainIS not
We mean to have neither free whiskey nor free
trade There are Just two ways of dealing with
the manufacture aud sale Of whiskey as Deyer-
age; FIRST, to absolutely prohibit It by constitu
uOnal amendment or other positive legal enact
ment-ln which case any tax would of course be
Impossible Or, second, in case the manufacture
and sale Is LOCALIZED, to impose local tax either
N the form OF nigh licenses or a tax on sales so
that the revenue derived may be appropriated
70 renewing the distress and pauperism caused by
the rayages OF intemperance. This would be both
practical and sensible; but to assess unon If n
national tax of lightweight millions of dollars
year, which is entirely unnecessary, and which to
great extent precludes the possibility Of ade-
quate local taxation, is simply FOLLY. Moreover
the large amount of capital required TO carry on
the business OF distilling because OF this tax, has
bulit up huge monopoly which compels those
who use alcohol for chemical, mechanical and
medicinal purposes TO pay a most exorbitant
price, which IS simply outrageous, as alcohol used
Tor such purposes should not be subjected TO tax
alton any more than should kerosene, turpentine
or cod liver oil There is no more determined
opponent OF the repeal of the internal revenue tax
ihan ihe whiskey ring itself. and with its allies
the democrats and free traders reinforced by
oemagogues and unreasoning doctrnaires, It
tho whole absurd system. But the logic of events
and the imperative necessities of the business
situation Will scatter it, and the great Republican
republican party, with protection to American
Industry displayed upon its banners, will march
to assured victory in 1888
